Large U.S. business owners will be required to pay higher prices in order to provide health insurance coverage to their employees, a new study shows.

Large U.S. companies are expected to have paid about $13,482 per employee in 2017 and that figure is forecast to rise to $14,156 next year. While employers will cover 70% of those costs, according to the survey employees could be responsible for about 30% - or $4,400 each in 2018.
